The manner of operating the Nonpareil,
by rotary motion acting on a crankshaft
(with balance wheel,) which moves the

vised for the purpose, and accomplishes the
work with the greatest rapidity and the

The great speed with which this machine
performs work will be understood from the
statement that It is geared to give six btrokes

or, when worked leisurely, about four hun

A eirl or boy of fifteen can work the ma

EMBROCATION!
I7OR ALL DISEASES INCIDENT TO
Horses, 'Caltlo and tho Human Flesh,
requiring the use cf an external application.
This new Compound, prepared by a prac
tical Chemist having a full knowledge of
all the medical virtues of each ingredient
that enters into its composition, is warran
ted to exceed anything of the kind yet of
fered to the public as an external applica
tion for the diseases for which it is recom
mended. We are satisfied that it will work
its own road iuto the confidence of all who
use it, and those who try it once will never
be without it, and therefore wo rely on ex
perience as the best test of its usefulness.
It is pronounced by Farriers, and all who
have tried it to be tho bent application ev
er used. This Embrocation has been put
up for over eight years, and it is only
through tho increasing demand and urgent
request of my friends and tho Publio that
1 send it forth as tho grand remedial agent
for tho various diseases to which that noblo
and useful animal, tho HORSE, isBubject.
Many remedies have been offered to the
Public under different forms, some of these
are injurious, others at bct of little use,
and many wholly improper to answer the
purposes for which they are recommended.
A judicious and renlly useful composition
free from those objections, has therefore
long been desired by many geiiilemon who
have valuable horses, and are unwilling to
trust them to the care of designing, and
pretending Furriers. Their wishes ar at
length fully gratified, by Dr. Bealo being
prevailed upon to allow this valuable Em
brocation (which has proved so etlleacious
to the various diseases) to be prepared and
brought out to the public.
This embrocation was extensively used
by the Government during tho war.
